Episode description

In this positively-perspectival episode, learn about what happened after the Gospels and after the Book of Acts, both in Jerusalem and in places like Ephesus and Athens and Rome and Alexandria. Eusebius's church history is an attempt to narrate a people into existence -- he refers more than once to "the Christian race," and he definitely sees the destruction of Jerusalem as the fulfillment of prophecy. He cites Josephus and Philo, as well as a letter said to be written by Jesus Christ himself. Seriously fun content here.
